A hybrid emulsion experiment was carried out to study double-strangeness nuclei produced via ξ- hyperon capture at rest with the expectation of ten times larger statistics than previous experiments. We have analyzed 5% of the total emulsion and fo...

A double-hyperfragment event has been found in a hybrid-emulsion experiment. It is identified uniquely as the sequential decay of 6∧ ∧ He emitted from a hyperon nuclear capture at rest. The mas of 6∧∧ He and the ∧ − ∧ interaction energy ΔB∧ ∧ have...

Nuclear Physics A 670 May 2000
An experiment to search for double-strangeness nuclei in nuclear emulsion is now being carried on as KEK-PS E373. Preliminary results of the data analysis for the K+ spectrometer and the scintillating fiber detectors are presented. Status of the a...
